"....In experiments done in the 1960s and 1970s, plants responded best to Classical and Indian devotional music. In a controlled environment, plants exposed to these kinds of music had lush and abundant growth and good root development. Jazz music as well produced more abundant growth. Exposure to country music or silence brought about no abnormal growth reaction. With rock music, plants did poorly. Their roots were scrawny and sparse and they seemed to be in a dying stage. Plants exposed solely to white noise died quickly."

All plants are beneficial.
Many brighten up our days
With fragrances and beauty
That delight in many ways.
So when it comes to music
Please be careful what you play.
They can't endure too much manure..
Be kind to your plant today!!!



Let classics make their lushness thrive
Like Wagner, Lizst and Bach.
No moss will grow on Rolling Stones
Or any groups of Rock.
Let sitar music soothe those petals.
Ravi, where'd you go?
Bring back those sounds of yesterday
To make our houseplants grow!



Why, even country sounds ok.
Bring on that rootin'-tootin'
Bluegrass sound and country twang
To get those pistils shootin'!!
Hey, Benny Goodman! Let your horn
Make those red roses regal.
There's just one plant that goes with Rock
And it's declared illegal!!



For everything they give to us
There's not much more to say.
Guns and Roses just don't mix..
Be kind to your plant today!!!!
